A dark still life with a lit candle, a shattered mirror reflecting an eye, torn handwritten papers, and a faint silhouette in the background. The text 'becoming drae' is at the bottom.

Absolutely. Since the album is titled “Becoming DRAE” and it traces the emotional, poetic, and vulnerable unfolding of your identity through music, the cover art needs to: • Symbolize transformation • Feel raw and intimate • Hint at the story told throughout the project • Be distinct, minimalist, and emotionally magnetic ⸻ 🎨 Cover Art Concept: “The Mirror & the Flame” 🖼️ Visual Breakdown: Foreground: • A shattered mirror laid flat on a wooden table. • In the largest shard: a reflection of your eye, partially in focus — direct but not staged. • A burning candle nearby — soft light flickers, hinting at hope or inner fire. • Scattered across the table: scraps of handwritten lyrics, ripped or smudged in places. Background: • A faint silhouette of a figure (you) out of focus in the back — mid-transformation — like a memory or ghost. • Subtle smoke curling upward from a blown-out match. Color Palette: • Muted greys, candlelight gold, ash black • Very light hints of crimson (emotion) and violet (depth) Texture: • Real grain (film-style), smudges, scratches — this feels found, not manufactured. Typography: • Album name: “becoming drae” in lowercase, handwritten font at the bottom corner — as if you signed it. ⸻ ✨ Symbolism: • Shattered Mirror = Fragmented self, identity under pressure • Eye Reflection = Invitation to see yourself in DRAE • Candle = Persistent light in isolation • Lyrics on Table = Music as the pieces that build identity • Silhouette = The self that is still Voir plus
